You can't stop fate...

Last week we went to Spokane to visit family and they did their best to sabotage my lead with delicious foods (Even Marian and she's not even in the contest!!)

Among the weapons used were pizzas, coffee cakes, sausages, italian sausages, doughnuts that were left out all day for me to munch on (even saving the cream filled ones just for me), and just a lot of naughty delicities.

But I held out for most the weekend...

...and then I had half a doughnut.


...an example of the sabotaging last weekend...

I wish I could say I fought the good fight against hunger and cravings, but alas, I caved...among the extra poundage I was sure to gain were 3 slices of pizza, doughnuts, and some extra sausages...

Feeling the strain of the calling of carbs and fats, I immediately ran 4 miles to curb my appetite.

Later, on the way home (weigh in day) the strain was more than I could bear. As soon as I got back I indulged in some very fattening, orange chicken, broccoli beef, fried rice and goodness that is the Panda Express takeout... after feeling a bit guilty over the frivolous carbs and all the baddies that go into 'take-out' I figured I might as well go all out and top it off with the fortune cookie.


...and then I read this and with renewed confidence, went and ran 5 miles.

I lost 4 lbs in 1 run. No joke.

Fate is obviously on my side. You can't stop fate.
